For some reason the baffles (teehee I love that word) me this chapter was written after watching Disney's 'Lilo & Stitch'
So if this chapter's crappy, blame the film. It was my inspiration :D
Chapter Four
Zoey
"Zoey! Will you hurry up! Goddess knows I hate repeating myself but, you are as slow as a fat kid on crutches." I seriously hate it when Aphrodite uses that term.
"Then don't repeat yourself. And don't make fun of people weight. It isn't nice." I snapped.
"Alright, don't get your panties in a knot. I was just telling you to hurry up." Aphrodite argued.
"Priestess?"
I whipped round to see Sgiach and Seoras standing underneath the pretty marble archway.
"Again, my Guardian and I would like to wish you and your company a pleasant journey."
Stark answered her before anyone else could, "Thank you Sgiach, for your hospitality and help. It is greatly appreciated."
"It was my pleasure young Guardian. Visit us soon, as it is your blood right and send you on your way with another congratulations."
"Thank you." Stark murmured again.
Stark
Hearing himself being called a Guardian by the Sgiach filled him with honour and pride. Yeah sure, Zoey called him it and it did make him feel all warm and tingly but it was different with the Sgiach. C'mon she was the Queen of all Warriors for goddess's sake!
"Hey, are you okay?" Zoey was looking at Stark with a hint of worry guarding her face, "Are you in pain?"
Huh? Oh. Stark realised that his eyes had started to fill with tears. He cleared his throat and started blinking rapidly, "Uh, yeah. I'm fine, just had something in my eye." Thankfully there was no one else around except Stark and Zoey.
"Let's go. I can't wait to see wait mess awaits us in Italy!" Zoey said sarcastically, taking his hand lacing her fingers through his.
Stark pulled her to a stop, not forcefully – just a gentle tug, "I love you Zoey." He told her simply.
"I love you too Stark."
His heart thumped with happiness and he totally forgot the situation that they were in and took her in his arms and tenderly kissed her.
Yep. Crap.
I need caffeine, goodbye.
